Having more foreskin removed.
Surgery can extend, but the surgical procedure that does it is not called circumcision.
Circumcision is an OPTION.
A vasectomy, is internal cutting for birth control. Cutting the exterior (foreskin), is called circumcision.
You should consult a urologist. He or she will either be able to perform the circumcision or refer you to a colleague who performs the procedure.
To cut open in Greek is cise, like in circumcision
Circumcision is generally not covered by health insurance as it is not a medically necessary procedure. Depending upon the type of anesthesia used, the procedure may cost anywhere between $500 and $2500.
Circumcise literally means to cut around. Generally speaking a circumcision is a removal of the foreskin of the penis. It is a relatively simple procedure that some people do it for health reasons and some people do it for religious reasons.

Advocates of circumcision claim it prevents infections (called balanitis ) on the head of the penis and reduces chances of penile cancer.
This is a surgical procedure Urologists do, not something you do yourself. The majority of circumcision in the world are not done by urologist but are done by people with no medical training at all.
Normally no. It will not pay for infant circumcision as that is not a necessary medical procedure. It will not pay for any circumcision done for cosmetic reasons. However, Medicaid will cover circumcision when it is medically necessary, for example when an adult male has phimosis, a chronic constriction of the foreskin that prevents normal functioning of the penis.
No .normally circumcision is the removal of healthy tissue from the penis and as such is not a necessary procedure, on the contrary it is harmful. However if it is a medical necessity then chances are it would be covered.
